Description
This booklet discusses Jewish involvement in shaping United States immigration policy. In
addition to a periodic interest in fostering the immigration of co-religionists as a result of
anti-Semitic movements, Jews have an interest in opposing the establishment of ethnically and
culturally homogeneous societies in which they reside as minorities. Jews have been at the
forefront in supporting movements aimed at altering the ethnic status quo in the United States in favor of immigration of non-European peoples. These activities have involved leadership in
Congress, organizing and funding anti-restrictionist groups composed of Jews and gentiles, and
originating intellectual movements opposed to evolutionary and biological perspectives in the
social sciences
